Australian-Made OFHC Copper Auto Cable Built for the Long Haul

Product Overview

The OEX ACX0702 is a 3mm single core automotive cable in red, supplied on a 30m roll. Manufactured in Australia from 99.99% oxygen free high conductivity (OFHC) copper, it features a 1.13mm² conductor cross-section and a 10A continuous rating at 30°C, making it suited to higher-current accessory circuits, lighting runs, and general automotive wiring where a more capable conductor is needed.

The red PVC insulation is UV stabilised and rated to V90 (90°C), making it suitable for under-bonnet and outdoor-exposed installations. Compliant with AS/NZS 3808:2000 and RoHS, the 30m roll format suits workshop jobs and multi-circuit installations without the bulk of a full-length trade roll.

Features & Benefits

  • 99.99% oxygen free high conductivity copper — minimises resistance and signal loss across the run
  • Australian owned and made — premium quality copper produced locally
  • 10A rated at 30°C — suited to higher-current accessory, lighting, and auxiliary circuits
  • UV stabilised PVC insulation — resists degradation in sun-exposed and under-bonnet environments
  • V90 temperature rating — insulation rated to 90°C continuous
  • 16-strand construction — flexible and easy to route through tight spaces
  • AS/NZS 3808:2000 compliant — meets the Australian and New Zealand standard for cables for internal wiring of equipment
  • RoHS compliant — meets hazardous substance restrictions
  • CAN bus compatible — suitable for use in modern vehicle wiring environments
  • 30m roll — workshop-friendly length for multi-circuit jobs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 3mm and 2mm automotive cable?

The 3mm cable has a larger conductor cross-section (1.13mm² vs 0.5mm²), a higher amp rating (10A vs 5A at 30°C), and a higher voltage rating (110V vs 100V). It is suited to circuits drawing more current than the 2mm range can safely handle, such as lighting circuits, relay feeds, and higher-draw accessories.

What is the amp rating for this cable?

This cable is rated at 10A continuous at 30°C. Ampacity decreases as ambient temperature rises, so applications in high-heat environments such as under-bonnet should be assessed accordingly.

What does V90 mean?

V90 is an Australian cable insulation classification indicating the PVC insulation is rated for continuous operation at up to 90°C. It is the standard specification for automotive-grade PVC insulated cable in Australia.

What does AS/NZS 3808:2000 compliance mean?

AS/NZS 3808:2000 is the Australian and New Zealand standard covering insulated conductors and cables for internal wiring of equipment. Compliance confirms the cable meets defined requirements for conductor construction, insulation properties, and performance.

Is this cable available in other colours or lengths?

OEX produces single core automotive cable in a range of colours and roll lengths across both the 2mm and 3mm ranges. Check the OEX cable range for other available options to suit your wiring job.
